Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
I spent another comfortable night in the igloo in our back garden last night. It might not be quite as confortable and warm as my real bed but I won’t get many chances to sleep in an igloo in the garden again so I thought that I may as well. The weather has taken its...
